IMHO, it still sucks that this juicer will end with more homers than The Babe. I know he won't be able to catch Aaron, but it still is crappy he'll be up there...

You're all lucky, the Bay Area FSN is playing over and over again promos about the chase for 715.

That plus their stupid "We're all Giants" promos with fans cutting the legs out from waiters, cyclists, delivery men, etc.

Almost as bad as the "We're all Mariners" promos of people jumping into walls or throwing odd round objects.

I have more whiffle and lob league HRs than Ruth and Aaron. These home runs, however, need to be put into context. This applies to HRs hit by Balco's finest.

I think when all is said and done this is how most people (and hopefully MLB)will view the Top 25 HR list circa 2020:

There is no way baseball would strike Bonds, McGwire, and Sosa's names from the record books. And why wouldn't Griffey Jr. try and hit 4 more jacks to get to 600?

May the "Curse of the Bambino" strike Barry with a vengeance.

Why wouldn't Fred McGriff try and hit 7 more jacks to get to 500?

Oh, wait....

Seriously, shouldn't you take your Barry love to a Giants board?

If Bonds passes Ruth, it is a HUGE deal. This means that a player cheated his way to pass up the most well-known baseball player in history. The pitchers will never get those runs back, the teams will never get those wins back, and because baseball didn't nip this cheater in the bud, they'll never get their record back.
